Forrest Patin

After Forrest's first trip outside the United States in 1972, he knew that he wanted to capture what he was seeing and share these images with other people.

Since then he has traveled six of the seven continents filming wild animals, massive landscapes, elements of nature and general travel photos.

Living near San Francisco offers unique photographic opportunities and having a second home in Lake Tahoe gives him a chance to film the fabulous seasonal sights it has to offer.

He enjoys taking photos via snowmobile, ATV, kayak or hot air balloon to get that unusual shot most people never see.

Forrest continually takes classes in photography in order to master capturing each subject's unique look or feel.

Judy Patin

Judy taught school for many years before retiring to raise her daughter, Anna. She enjoys mixing her photography with her travels. Her friends say, "You've been everywhere!"

She says, "I have so many more places to go to and quite a few places that I want to revisit!" She likes to try to capture the heart and soul of places rather than just the scenery. Watch the site for her stories about some of her upcoming trips.

With her switch from film to digital, she has attended Nikon seminars for better pictures, Adobe Photoshop CS2 Seminars, a three day Nikon Mentor Series, and attended Academy X in San Francisco for Photoshop classes.

She is a member of the National Association of Photoshop Professionals.
